900 days seems such a bloody long time to count down!
I think it would make me less excited really.

Wow do people seriously need nearly three years to plan a wedding now? This is going to be one hell of a bridezilla!!!

I don't have the patience to wait that long for something! I would just have to not think about it at all. Definitely not post fb statuses about it!

Someone on my feed did a year long countdown to someone ELSE'S wedding at which she was a bridesmaid. I blocked her after a month.

I take it that she isn't a nutter who hasn't met the OH yet?

I had three and a half years to plan my wedding Blush but that was mainly saving money. I did post something similar on FB to that but I was taking the piss out of the situation more than anything! I knew hoe ridiculous it was, perhaps you're friend is the doing the same?

My DD was proposed to on bonfire night, wedding in June this year! She will be 19 but too mature for constant countdowns!

Hahaha, NINE HUNDRED DAYS? Amazing.

She'll explode before the wedding rolls around.

I'd have waited to see how often she posted about it I think. If she just posted every 300 days or something it would be fine. If every day it would get a bit much.

At least she didn't say '900 sleeps'?

Clutching at straws here.

YANBU. I've done exactly the same thing.

Yabu.

If you think she might actually count down YANBU

Even she'll be sick of planning it by then!

Seeing as an average pregnancy lasts 280 days, if she's very very quick at getting pregnant after each birth, she could have three children in that time. Three extra bridesmaids / pageboys. Don't suggest it though!

I completely fail to 'get' why other people fantasise about their perfect grand wedding. The typical perfect wedding is anathema to me.

Despite that, I can't help feeling leave her be. She's obviously very excited, which is surely the emotion she should be feeling at the prospect of getting married?

You known you can remove someone from your news feed without unfriending them?

Seems a bit OTT but if that's how you feel it's probably for the best.

Ha! I would have kept her as a friend and made a status like '2700 poos until Sarah Smith's wedding.'
But I'm a dick.
